| Discovery Notes | Discovered by Taylor Preston, Teba Latef, and Jacob Halka. This sample was found from wet dirt surrounding a walkway near the Cathedral of Learning, surrounded by a bed of other dirt; it was very wet and muddy. |
| Naming Notes | We selected the name "Tramonto" because it is the Italian translation of the word sunset, and the group member who discovered the phage has Italian heritage and we thought the name sounded pretty. Some of our phage plates formed in an interesting way, where around half of the plate was cleared and a little less than half of the plate had an orange-colored bacterial lawn with phage on it, making it look like a sunset. |
